Almond Butter Cookie Pops

My second job was at a Godiva chocolate
shop. There was this amazing almond butter truffle that my sister and I (she worked with me, which made it the best job ever!) would snag
almost every shift (the manager said we could "pig out" while we were
working). This recipe is my closest representation of that, in
combination with a cookie, all dipped in chocolate....oh, and on a stick.

You can replace the almond butter with cashew or peanut butter. The chocolate can be dark, milk, or white, but I like milk
chocolate for this recipe.

Melt butter slightly. Mix first four
ingredients together. Some almond butters are drier than others. If
mixture is not moist, add more butter slowly until it reaches a
moldable, yet moist consistency.

Roll almond butter into small disks,
then put sticks through disks down onto cookies. You will need to
lightly smash the butter into the cooled cookie.
